Thanks for your answer.

Ok, my bad, kernel 2.6.32, that's right.

As long as I know, the module kernel was introduced from 2.6.36 and 
above, so, lower kernels lack the drbd device modue support, so, I undertood
I could not install or build any DRBD version on those kernels.

If you say that I can make any build on that kernel, ( 2.6.32 ),  DRBD 
8.4 included, I'll really appreciate your guidance on that, if there are any
already built rpm packages, the better, just cuz you mention you can 
provide suitable packages :D



Thanks for your time and support
Best Regards
